9-2 Compare Instructions
Using the Compare
Instructions
Most of the compare instructions use two parameters, Source A and
Source B (MEQ and LIM have an additional parameter and are described
later in this chapter). Both sources cannot be immediate values. The valid
data ranges for these instructions are:
-32768 to 32767 (word)
-2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647 (long word)
Addressing Modes and File Types can be used as shown in the following
table:
IMPORTANT
Only use the High Speed Counter Accumulator (HSC.ACC)
for Source A in GRT, LES, GEQ and LEQ instructions.
Table 9.1 EQU, NEQ, GRT, LES, GEQ and LEQ Instructions
